Linus Tremaine Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 All,I collect vintage camping gear from the 1920s and 30s. I am pretty well covered for most items but some things are elusive and there are many things I dont even know about yet. I am looking for items such as:Prentiss Wabers Auto Cook OvenOriginal canvas umbrella tent with wood polesAuto picnic setsTelescope folding furniture metal framed folding cotunusual desert water bagsrollup 1920s camp table - black top with wooden legs I am interested in just about anything that I dont have already. Let me know if you have anything that might be interesting. I plan to actually use this stuff. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodge1934 Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 I don`t have one for sale but you might want to add a Cameraphone to your list of things to take along... they are the size of an old brownie box camera and played 78 records. Ideal for camp entertainment... I have seen several in my time ... I do have one but use it whenever I take the care to a show and shine...FYI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linus Tremaine Posted December 15, 2016 Author Share Posted December 15, 2016 Still on the hunt guys. I got a Sun Brand canvas tent and have my prentiss wabers oven. I still am interested in any antique camping equipment such as folding bathtubs, car kitchens, runningboard cases etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linus Tremaine Posted April 14, 2020 Author Share Posted April 14, 2020 I managed to miss this PW table. Its very nice - I do already have one but if you still have it I might know someone else who would want it. Otherwise - I am still hunting for auto camp equipment. If anyone else has anything let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Peter, I cant use these on my open car but I do appreciate the offer. Perhaps someone else in the hobby with a closed car can use them. I absolutely love these auto shades but they just wont fit my car. L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont really have things I want to sell in my collection - it is so very hard to find. If you look up this thread above GMiller is selling a great Prentiss Wabers auto camp table set ( i already have one) and it is from the 1920s. Why dont you message him and see if he will sell it to you. Its probably 100-125 USD value. I saw your post in my facebook group as well. I will help you as much as I can. We should meet along the way. L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linus Tremaine Posted July 23, 2021 Author Share Posted July 23, 2021 I do have a folding bathtub. But I would consider another. I found mine on eBay for about 100 dollars. l Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AB22 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 As I'm a new registrant, I can't message you. I have it listed on the Albany, NY Craigslist ("folding camp bathtub"). You can email me via a link in the ad if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
